Chapter 121 Secret Realm (31)
Sitting up with his elbows propped up, Ji Changyue took off the jade pendant with his other hand and placed it on his lap. He began to absorb the spiritual energy, directing the spiritual energy to the palm of his hand to warm the rotten flesh.
But her strength was low, and she directly used her hands to pick up the remnant soul of the Resentment Demon. The injury was really serious, and the little spiritual energy she had was just better than nothing.
Ji Changyue casually wiped his face with his sleeve, got out of bed, found a long piece of cloth, bit the end of the cloth with his teeth, pulled the end of the cloth with his other hand, wrapped it around the wound, and bandaged his palm.
Seeing that her hands were wrapped like rice dumplings, Ji Changyue let out a breath and felt a little relieved. This time, the last remaining soul of the resentful demon disappeared. Now she could truly avenge the villagers, and she had to do it herself.
In fact, she was very scared when she went to the Cui family's darkroom today. She was afraid that the demon of resentment would be too powerful and that she would die. She often said that Ji Changan was timid and cowardly. In fact, she was the same. She was afraid of death and was always hesitant to do things.
But she knew that if she didn't go today, the resentment demon would regain strength in the future, and the entire Wangxian City would become her prey. She might as well take a gamble and strike first. She simply won the bet.
Ji Changyue smiled and picked up the jade pendant. The red color in the jade pendant seemed to have faded for some reason.
After getting ready and going out, the sky had already darkened, and thick black clouds hung over Wangxian City, making it look like a storm was coming.
"Sister, how are you?" Ji Changan trotted over before he even stepped out of the room.
Seeing Ji Changyue's tightly wrapped hands and pale face, his eyes turned red again, "Sister, do you feel any pain? Didn't you go to the city lord's mansion to work as an accountant, why were you so seriously injured?"
Seeing him crying, Ji Changyue's face dropped, "Chang'an, I'm so hungry."
"Then I'll cook!" As soon as he heard her say she was hungry, Ji Changan immediately hurried to the kitchen.
Dismissing Ji Changan, the little housekeeper, Ji Changyue walked to the main hall.
The soldiers sent by the city lord were still guarding here. Ji Changyue stepped forward and said, "Brothers, please send me back."
"Miss Ji, you don't have to be polite. This is what we should do." The soldiers admired him for daring to face the resentful demon alone, especially Ji Changyue, who was only a fourteen-year-old girl, so his attitude was very respectful.
.
Ji Changyue did not continue this topic and instead asked: "Do you know where the city lord is now?"
"The city lord should go to the prison to interrogate Cui Laosan." One person said, "Miss Ji, do you want to see the city lord? The city lord told Miss Ji to just take good care of your injuries, and then go to the city lord's mansion after your injuries are healed."
"Nurture the injury," Ji Changyue smiled bitterly. She might not be able to heal her injury in the mortal world.
She didn't say much, chatted with a few soldiers about what happened next today, and then let them leave.
There was nothing major wrong with the wound except that it could not be healed. The yard she rented was small, and it was impossible to arrange such a circle of people in the small yard.
For several days, Ji Changyue stayed in the small courtyard and practiced in the name of recovering from his injuries.
During this period, the city lord sent Butler Li to come and bring many valuable gifts. Yun Yan also came several times. Through their mouths, Ji Changyue also knew what happened after the resentment demon was eliminated.
After the remnant soul of the resentful demon dissipated that day, the small stone statue that Yun Yan found also broke into pieces.
After knowing that the resentful demon was completely dead, Cui Laosan was completely heartbroken and told everything honestly.
The Resentful Demon is a demon that escaped from the world of cultivation. He was seriously injured and was encountered by Cui Laosan five years ago. At that time, Cui Laosan embezzled a large sum of money and was frightened every day. The Resentful Demon beguiled Cui Laosan to help him recover, and
He helped Cui Laosan avoid the scrutiny of the city lord's palace.
Cui Laosan agreed, and then secretly massacred the people under the instructions of the resentful demon. The people belonged to the resentful demon, and the money belonged to Cui Laosan. The two of them worked together and secretly acted recklessly in Wangxian City.
The accountant who escaped before Ji Changyue was also poisoned by Cui Laosan, and he discovered Cui Laosan's secret only because of a drunken incident.
The reason why Jijia Village was massacred was because the Demon of Resentment sensed that it was about to break through, and made a desperate move to use the flesh and blood of a whole village to help itself advance.
Cui Laosan confessed everything and committed suicide in fear of guilt. Cui Laosan's son Cui Jin also died of fear in his dream soon.
The two masterminds are dead, and the only ones left are the female relatives.
In this matter, even if they are not the murderers, they are not unaware of what Cui Laosan did. Since they chose to hide it and enjoy the comfortable life brought by ill-gotten gains, they must now bear the consequences.
As women, they could not make the decision. They only confiscated all the property of the Cui family and drove them out of Wangxian City.
Wangxian City is remote and the nearest city is hundreds of miles away. Whether they can survive depends on their luck.
After Ji Changyue learned about it, he was silent for a moment and then continued to practice.
Those female members of the Cui family are not like her in the book, who was brought into the Immortal Sect and had no control over her. They will be scorned and discussed after death, and they will never have the right to choose.
After practicing day and night for half a month, Ji Changyue finally broke through to the second level.
Rarely, Ji Changyue felt at ease and moved a small wicker chair to sit in the yard. When Ji Changyue came out, Ji Changan also moved a small stool and sat next to Ji Changyue.
The stars in the sky twinkled, and Ji Changan asked: "Sister, have my parents turned into stars and watched us in the sky?"
When I was a child, my parents often said that the dead will look at the people they love most in the sky. So are his parents by his side in another form?
Logically speaking, Ji Changyue should agree, but she shook her head, "After death, the soul will enter the River of Forgetfulness, and uncles and aunts will be reincarnated and have a new life."
Ji Changan will know this sooner or later. When they enter the world of cultivation, they will encounter something more cruel than the resentment demon. She doesn't want him to be naive anymore.
Ji Changan was stunned, his eyes dim. After a while, he suddenly said: "Then if I get married and have children, will my parents be reincarnated into my children?"
Now it's Ji Changyue's turn to be dumbfounded, little brat, your ideas are very perverted!
Holding his face, Ji Changyue looked dangerous, "You'd better give up your idea. You don't want your parents to want to climb up and strangle you to death, right?"
After Ji Changyue's reminder, Ji Changan finally remembered what a cruel woman his mother was. If she knew that he had such rebellious thoughts, she would definitely give him a beating.
"It's better not to do it." Ji Changan shook his head in horror, "Let my parents be reincarnated into a good family."
Seeing that he had returned from his lost way, Ji Changyue rewarded him with a loving smile.
Ji Changan pulled the small stool and moved it back, farther away from her.
His eyes fell, and he said in surprise, "Hey, sister, the jade pendant on your waist will shine."
Ji Changyue lowered her head and saw that the jade pendant shone slightly, and the red color in the crabapple flower had completely disappeared, leaving only the clear green color.
Holding the jade pendant tightly, Ji Changyue asked Ji Changan to go back to the room first.
Ji Changan returned to his room obediently, but felt uneasy in his heart.
